Hasn't done it yet, Cueist. That said, can't see him missing here.

Did Ronnie say this? Think he should stick to the snooker analysis as that's probably the worst comparison to football I can think of. "TheRocket" had it right: it's more like the Barcelona v Real Madrid, the 'el clasico' of snooker.

Told you Cueist, Fu did respond and Williams can't make mistakes like he did there because let's just say Fu won't play as bad as Robbo did, far from it.
If Williams wants to win this match, has to start making the most of every chance.

Miscue from Fu, but MJW can only snooker him.

Boring for you maybe, but they've had some wonderful and some of the best classic matches down the years and I love when both play against each other, such a cracking match it always is.

yeah if Fu wins this frame from behind again then Williams has pretty much lost this match.

Forget that. Some person in the front row will get a cue thrown at him if that happens again.

The best times of Ronnie vs Higgins matches are obviously over but nevertheless it's one of the best rivalries we have ever had in Snooker. They produced wonderful moments in Snooker.

Watching Judd Trump over the last 16 months and he is missing easy balls like a 40 year old player on the decline! I think the problem might be concentration levels. I would advise Judd to take up yoga, seriously, something like tree posture practiced every day would improve Judd's concentration levels no end.

Yeah gutted for that, would have been a great clearance.
Williams might be inspired by winning that frame and play well again.

Yeah absolutely, some of the best matches ever in snooker, such a great rivalry those 2 have.
Tomorrow will just be another chapter of that, hopefully with a Ronnie win.

over the years there's been some cracking revelries but for some reason Ronnie v Higgins has never got me going at all.
yes there have been great matches played and exciting finishes but there's no spark there for me.....Possibly too much mutual respect.

Good snooker is good snooker. A bad match isn't going to be improved just because there's needle between the players and a good match won't be considered crap just because the players are friends.
